Book I'm Reading
I wrapped this one up this week. It was given to me by the former Executive Director of the ministry I serve with, and he highly recommended it. I appreciated the easy-to-read narrative packed with practical leadership lessons.

On Bitcoin
Bitcoin tagged the 200-week MA this week and fell back down. A healthy bull flag is forming around these levels. Unless it falls back below ~$76,200, it’s within a healthy range. It does need to push up above $82,000 and hold to see the next level of this bull trend continue.
